We bring wine and story-telling together by sharing legends from Turkey that are related to four local wines to be tasted.
About this Event

Anatolia has been home to some of the world’s earliest winemaking civilisations, including the Hittites and Phrygians. Over the centuries, wine culture in the region was disrupted — with prohibitions during the Ottoman era and the decline of vineyards following the migration of non-Muslim communities in the late Ottoman and early Republican periods.

In the 20th and 21st centuries, however, Turkish winemakers began reviving these traditions, rediscovering ancient grape varieties and bringing them back to life.

This tasting event will celebrate Anatolian grapes by introducing you to four unique local wines, each made from indigenous varieties. Alongside the wines, you’ll hear ancient myths and cultural stories from the regions where these grapes originate.

The line-up will include:

  • Narince – an aromatic, dry white grape.
  • Öküzgözü – a medium-bodied, dry red.
  • Plus two additional bottles from local grapes (to be confirmed later).

The event will take place at Bosa Kitchen in Southfields. To support our host restaurant, all attendees are kindly asked to order at least one dish alongside the tasting. Their full menu of Lebanese mezze and main dishes will be available to enjoy.

No prior wine knowledge needed! This is a casual and welcoming event — no jargon, no pretentiousness, just good wines, good stories, and good company. We’ll taste, share impressions, and enjoy the experience together.

During the tasting, you’ll have the chance to jot down your impressions on simple tasting forms we provide. After the event, we’ll email a summary of everyone’s thoughts, so you can see how your experience compares with the group.

This is planned as the first in a series of Anatolian wine journeys. Join us at the beginning of this adventure and discover the rich flavours, history, and culture of Anatolia through its wines. Follow us on Instagram to stay up-to-date.
